Budget estimate

$50,000 – $150,000

Based on typical costs for sonic drilling (approximately $1,000‑$2,500 per meter of depth, plus mobilization, materials, and site restoration), a 40‑meter hole could range from $40,000 to $100,000 per bore. Assuming the contract includes multiple holes and ancillary work, the total contract value is likely between $50,000 and $150,000. Factors influencing the range include the number of holes, depth variations, material costs (cement, bentonite), and the extent of site cleanup required.
